Review: So cute and works great! - This little guy is so cute. I’ve named him Oscar. I didn’t realize till I read the instructions a few days after I started using it that you weren’t supposed to touch him (which I did, but I’m still here), have to wrap it in newspaper (haven’t seen any of those in a while) to discard it, etc. This scared me that it might not be safe to inhale the mist but I looked it up and apparently it is perfectly safe and does appear to keep the humidifier tank clean as a whistle though you are still supposed to clean it regularly. I definitely recommend it even though it’s a little pricey to replace each month which is recommended.
Review: Keeps humidifiers clean - This works great! Purchased in November and it lasted until January with consistent use. The fish is super easy to use, you just drop right into the humidifier and it does its thing. It keeps it clean, with no smells and is safe to use. I definitely got my money's worth from this and will be purchasing more!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How do you clean this little fish? Do you soak in vinegar and bleach like the rest of the humidifier? Or will that damage it?**
A: Per the instructions of the user manual you only need to clean and sanitize once a week and never the fish EVER . U are not to use soap or any detergents. Just vinegar swish and wipe let sit for 20 minutes and rinse with clean water to get smell out let dry. THEN BLEACH . never together. Always always keep the manuals to products you buy and store them in a accordion folder to always refer to. The manual tells you all this and how much to use . 2 cups of vinegar solely for the scale buildup . And 1/2 tbs bleach to 1/2 of water . Never mix bleach and vinegar. You don't mix a base with an acid

**Q: What is it made out of? Is it chemical?**
A: Chris is trolling. The term he used—dihydrogen monoxide—means, literally, water. 
di (meaning two) hydrogen molecules + mono (meaning one) oxide (meaning oxygen) molecule = H2O, which is the chemical shorthand for water, which most of us are familiar with. 
“Dihydrogen monoxide parody” 
“ The dihydrogen monoxide parody involves calling water by an unfamiliar chemical name, most often "dihydrogen monoxide", and listing some of water's properties in a particularly alarming manner, such as accelerating corrosion and causing suffocation.” Wikipedia 

Don’t try to breathe the water in a humidifier (or drink it, for that matter), and you’ll be okay

**Q: Does this fish clink or make any noise if it hits the side of the tank and disturb light sleepers?**
A: The fish hardly moves unless you shake the tank, I don’t think it would make a sound louder than the blowing of the humidifier.

**Q: Can you put this in a dehumidifier? They get so scummy!**
A: That's what I was coming here to ask.  I would think it would work the same way. I can't see how it would be any different.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Please improve the size!
*by D***D on January 31, 2026*

Unfortunately this doesn't fit in many humidifier tank openings (even though it would fit in the tank itself) due to the fins of the fish. I would appreciate a thinner cylinder so it was more versatile.
